I can’t tell if that post about the LNAV is legit or not. As I have not flown this plane yet, is there something wrong with the LNAV?

I'll soon be able to test 0.9.0 and will report back after an LEMD-LPPT flight.

Meanwhile and as usual, the FBW Team excels in providing a professional product at €0,00 !!!

What a GREAT EXAMPLE of commitment to the community!!!

Thank you Watsi & FBW!

For some time now my FBW A32NX has been painted all white except the engines and the movable part of the rudder which are the original green.

The original paint scheme shows up correctly in the selection screen, but not when I load it.

I just installed the new version thinking it would now be corrected, but it still shows up all white.

Also when I escaped to return to the main menu I waited about 15 minutes and it never finished, so I had to close it with the Task Master.

I don't know what's going on here.  Any suggestions.

Do we know if there are any plans to move VNAV to more than just the experimental version?  It seems like it's been "in testing" there for more than a year now.

I'd also like to know.

Agree 100%. Took the HW A339 from LAX-HND last night. I haven't been in MSFS for a long time, and was shocked the VNAV wasn't in stable branch yet...

IS that right? I have been using Experimental for months but now switched to the stable again. Is VNAV still not in there? I must have a look.

I also want to say thank you for your great work! So we are coming closer to V 1.0 🙂 

Greets,

Real men don't use VNAV 😜

Joke apart... I was able to jumpseat quite a few times in airliners, including several Airbuses, and there were two aspects of their operation, at least in the two companies I used the most, that kind of surprised me because I was expecting VNAV to be used naturaly:

- on most descents from TOD down and before reverting to manual flight, FLC and even VS were used more often;

- in Airbus the AP **AND** AT being disengaged for the whole final approach;

I like to set my own descent rate, make some arythmetic and even trying to manually follow constraints to make me busy in a long flight where I would otherwise "leave the cockpit" and go playing with my cat - Kagarini...

In my case, I want to be able to have the plane fly the glide slope on an RNAV approach, which I would expect is pretty common?

An uneducated guess: maybe FLC/VS make it easier to comply with ad hoc ATC instructions?

Interesting!

I am a bit confused about the Simbridge option. I duly downloaded and installed it with the FBW installer but when I started up MSFS there was a "not yet downloaded" version showing in my Content Manager. Although selectable there was no download or update option so it just remains there in my Content Manager showing as not installed. Is this normal as I for one have not come across this sort of situation before?

Yepp!

We've released a small patch to fix the metadata found in MSFS content manager to properly reflect the stable version is installed. We've also contacted our ground staff to properly switch the INOP sticker to the correct colors. All flights are now cleared for departure.

Please read before flying: https://docs.flybywiresim.com/latest-release/

Note: Throttle calibration is now required.

Happy Flying!

I haven’t flown this in a while, I’m wondering if anyone can comment on how support for Skalarki hardware has evolved?  Is the FCP still working well?  Has support for the MCDU materialized?
